A shepherd can no more shepherd wolves than a pastor can disciple a flock of fools. Those who may be discipled are the humble, the hungry, and those distrustful of their own understanding. BICS has long stated as both its goal and reason for existing that it is in the business of discipleship. Whether or not it is able to make good on that aspiration depends greatly on the type of young people that make up each class. Everyone enrolled is a student but very few are disciples. Looking back on our experience - was orientation the beginning of a lazy-river ride or was it the end of one? Are we yet disciples?
